Final version using geom_tile (😉@jakekaupp). ggpattern was way easier than I thought it would be, thanks @coolbutuseless! code: github.com/gkaramanis/distra… #rstats #ggplot2
I had thought of reproducing the original and when @hadleywickham asked, I just had to do it :) Can't figure out how to use ggpattern for the blue shirt, probably not going to work since I used geom_segment. code: github.com/gkaramanis/distra… #rstats #ggplot

what comes after late stage capitalism
Replying to @steak_umm
we're a frozen meat brand posting ads inevitably made to misdirect people and generate sales, so this is peak irony, but hey we live in a society so please make informed decisions to the best of your ability and don't let anecdotes dictate your worldview ok steak-umm bless

therapist: and what do we do when we're overwhelmed by having to learn a challenging new software package? me: avoid feelings of inadequacy by implementing my own package from scratch even though it will take me longer and objectively not be as good? therapist: no

How has the world changed? This 🧵 compiles many of my plots on, eg., child mortality, fertility, GDP, women's education, and life expectancy. Thanks to @Gapminder for the data! #rstats First, child mortality has dropped precipitously all over the world. #GoodNewsGraphs (1/N)

Friendly reminder that if you want to use your figures again and don't want to hand copyright over to a journal: 1. Share the figure with a CC0 license before you submit, effectively releasing the figure into the public domain. 2. That's it, you can always use the figure now.

In proofs, copy editor wrote, for a ref with 217 authors: "Don't abbreviate authors with et al.—journal style requires to spell out all names." And because I'm an adult I did the grownup thing: Spelled out 217 names, & also added a ref to the Higg's Boson paper. (。◕‿◕。)

These are made by @jenitive_case. I *think* I got the first one of this variety; she'll even make them in your IDE's color scheme!

I wrote about something that’s been weighing on me lately: how weird it is to be living through history’s only accurate prediction about the end of the world — and how hard it is to just go about your life during the actual for real end times theoutline.com/post/7754/cli…

data: it’s not your fault me, a data scientist: *softly* I know data: no you don't. it’s not your fault me: *serious* I know data: listen to me. it’s not your fault me: *eyes closed crying* data: *whispers* it’s not your fault.
